Hey Gang! While I was watching Justified on FX recently I saw a fantastic new live-action trailer for the new Halo: Reach video game. This trailer was pretty freakin badass, and I knew it had to be online so of course I found it on YouTube. This video game trailer is entitled Birth of a Spartan.

The highly classified bio-augmentation procedure is a Spartan candidate’s final and most difficult ordeal before joining the ranks of the legendary soldiers. The dramatic interpretation of Carter’s rebirth as a Spartan embodies the themes of courage, sacrifice and honor in Halo: Reach and gives viewers a unique look into the origins of a central character in the upcoming blockbuster game.

The Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta begins on May 3rd. Are you ready? I love the quality of these live-action Halo trailers, and the detail that they put into them. Check out the trailer below and let us know what ya think!
